It's been a while since i've been on the forums but has alcohol been confirmed? and if so does it only drain your intelligence or make the screen go blurry

Yesh. It the makes your stanima go up and your recevor rate go downn.

"Alcohol such as wine, mead, and ale can be purchased and consumed by players’ character throughout the game; and in one sequence, players can engage in a drinking contest with another character, which eventually results in slurred speech (e.g., “One more. No problemsh . . . Thash graqe!”)."

Thish.

I hope they have like a drunk thing they had in GTAIV.. i would for my orc on my second playthrough to slay bar people with my huge mother[censored] axe while staggering around

saints row does these things better anyway. elder scrolls has always done boose as just some crappy potion NPCs drank. in saints row, you can drink and drive! you can light up a blunt or bong infront of cops and they cant do anything! then you can shoot them in the face! thats what alcohol in games is suppose to be like.

Alcohol - with a question mark? Son, you're in Nord country now. Alcohol is the first part of everything you'll do all day long in Skyrim! Brush your teeth? With alcohol! Explore the cold mountain caves? Not without the bracing warmth of alcohol! Accept a quest? Not before you become friends with the quest-giver - with alcohol! Body hurting after that last fight? Take the edge off - with alcohol! Bed down for the night? With alcohol - the natural sleep aid!

Is alcohol confirmed? Do numerous and hideous monsters poop in the woods? Yes. Hell, yeshh....

The real question is can I put a tiny umbrella or at least a swizzle stick in my drinks?
